Sublime_Coatsworth Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 I have to say I've always found Spurs fans to have a bit of a chip on their shoulders. I think they're going to get worse when it dawns on them that their best chance in 40(?) years of winning the league is going to be scuppered by us!

Popular Post Ric Flair Posted 3 February 2016 Popular Post Share Posted 3 February 2016 Possession in football is one of the biggest myths in the game, it does not and never will guarantee that you win games. Ok, if you have 100% of the ball then the opposition will never score and therefore you won't ever lose but it's what you do with the ball that counts and if you have a lot of possession and waste it then it's unforgivable. It's like a class of students preparing to sit an exam, half of them revise like mad frantically reading cover to cover everything they've been taught that year and the other half have a clear revision plan on what they need to focus on, the key areas they can pick up easy marks that will give them a better chance of passing, they know they can't learn everything so they master what they know will make them successful. Which students do better in the exams? Do the ones who have efficiently planned their revision get criticized and asked to be marked down for not wasting hours reading pointless and unneccessary material? No of course they don't. I'd be embarrassed right now if I was a fan of a club who plays boring possession based football that produces the square root of fcuk all when it comes down to it. Piss off. The game is changing and you're being left behind by a group of misfits and you should applaud us as we steam roll past you. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chapero82 Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 Spurs fans make me laugh how they think more possession makes you the better team! Passing it around your defence all game isn't going to get you a goal is it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lgfualol Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 Anyone else sitting here with a shit eating grin thinking about how the fans with a bitter hate boner for us keeps changing to a team higher up the table? Two seasons ago it was Watford and Burnley but now it's a perennial top 4 wannabe outfit slinging bile... It was only a few months ago you had Sunderland looking down at us and making 30 threads about Leicester a day.

HankMarvin Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 Leicester City almost sold Jamie Vardy to Sheffield Wednesday in the summer, according to reports. Vardy has enjoyed an astonishing run of form this season, breaking the Premier League record for consecutive goals, and stole the headlines with a wonder strike in Leicester’s 2-0 victory over Liverpool on Tuesday night. The striker, who now appears a certainty to be in Roy Hodgson’s England squad for Euro 2016, is on the verge of signing a new contract at the Foxes as the club attempt to ward off interest from the likes of Liverpool and Chelsea. But according to Football Insider, Vardy was close to plying his trade in the Championship this term. The report suggests Wednesday had agreed a £5million fee with Leicester at the beginning of the summer, with Nigel Pearson willing to sanction the 29-year-old’s departure. However, despite the recommendation of then Owl’s manager Stuart Gray, owner Dejphon Chansiri pulled the plug on the deal, as he was unconvinced the forward was worth the cost. Wednesday have since gone on to bolster their forward line with the signings of Fernando Forestieri, Lucas Joao and Gary Hooper, who have scored 23 Championship goals between them. Vardy, meanwhile, has bagged 18 goals in the Premier League. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC Prussian Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 It's not as if they're somehow not going to feck it all up themselves as per and finish 5th or 6th They usually follow Arsenal's example. But with Kane up front, things could pan out differently this season, you never know. As long as they finish behind us and get punished for their smugness, I'm all good.

bluesbrothers Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 oh dear!. They seem a little bit bitter about something?? But you see, it's supposed to be THEIR year! The media say so! Roy says so! They've got Kane and Alli, and the cleanest arseholes in the country from all the arselicking they've recieved! How DARE a shit, tinpot club like LEICESTER take 4 points off of them and storm to a summit reserved for them? THEY'RE the ones who are supposed to be making a historic tilt at the title, not a little club from the Midlands who didn't even know how to win a football match until April! Let the knobheads keep being dismissive. They've been spoonfed plaudits for years now without doing anything noteworthy, so it's understandable that they don't really know how to react to a supposedly inferior club, who have spent a fraction of what they have over the past few seasons, making them look ordinary. Oh, and after reading this: Their entire game is based on hoofs forward hoping for a lucky bounce - 90s Italian bullshit Tragic scenes, tragic fans, self-confessed racists, etc. I desperately want to see tears at White Hart Lane come May.

Finnaldo Posted 3 February 2016 Share Posted 3 February 2016 London clubs really do try their hardest to live up to the bellend Londoner stereotype don't they, literally every club there (other than West Ham, imo) have some superiority complex that I can only assume comes from believing England ends at Watford. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If this upstart season has a face, it belongs to the pale, rawboned, backstreet whippet: Oliver Twist has stolen the back pages...." and so on for several hundred words. Love it. This bit is superb: But, with every day the East Midlands bonfire continues to blaze, the season increasingly becomes the property of Leicester. Beside Kante, the Duracell bunny resembles a sloth. The diminutive Frenchman is a relentless force of nature, the irritating mosquito that buzzes maddeningly, tireless in his desire to agitate. Leading the league in both tackles made and interceptions, Leicester’s King Power stadium might have been named for the 24-year-old. Kante is a drill-bit probing the arid land for high-grade fuel. If Mahrez, the artistic Algerian, briefly hit a mid-season speed-bump before moving through the gears once more on Tuesday, still only three players have scored more league goals; Ozil, alone, has a greater tally of assists. Yet if Mahrez has hypnotised, if Kante, capable of everything other than locating the dim switch for his ceaseless, firefly dazzle, would be a legitimate Player of the Year, still they form the support cast. For the fiesta in Leicester goes by the name of the Vardy Gras. The Foxes unimaginable banquet is being cooked in Jamie’s Kitchen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because they didn't win the league in 1984 doesn't make them a current small team. The Spurs win is our best this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post ScouseFox Posted 3 February 2016 Popular Post Share Posted 3 February 2016 i have to say im actually a bit pissed off we do play good football and that's why we're top. i think i'd enjoy it even more if we really were completely shit and somehow still top. just cos it'd annoy more people. as it is it's cool letting people think we hoof it to nobody and just run after it. they think that vardy's first goal was "a hoof and a lucky finish". it was a pass. not a hoof. just because it wasn't 3 yards on the floor to the centre back stood next to him doesn't mean it wasn't a pass. you can pass it in the air you know. you can even pass it forwards if you want. 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
